Who's Afraid of the BRICS?
Panic over BRICS expansion is gripping the corporate cartels and their political puppets in the TransAtlantic region. The emergence of the Global South, and its moves toward "de-dollarization", are identified as an existential threat to the Anglo-American Military-Financial Complex, with the Atlantic Council leading the way in demanding action to halt this dynamic. Two areas of special concern for them are the region of North Africa, and India. For more background on this, use the links below:

Swords into Plowshares? Mobilize the Optimism for Life, to Defeat Depravity and Doom
The MIFC--Military Industrial Financial Complex--has a long reach throughout Western society. Just look at the AFFC--the Agro Food Financial Complex, against which German farmers are demonstrating in the streets right now, in mass numbers. There is also Big Pharma, and Corporatized Doctoring--the same thing in the medical domain: the Medical Financial Complex. And on and on.
The powers-that-be in government, which may not be in office that long, are using their offices and power to serve these complexes, committing genocide in Gaza, while imposing misery at home and abroad.
Take stock of the situation at year-end, and what we must do, in discussion tonight with Dennis Speed and Marcia Merry Baker, Co-Editor of the Executive Intelligence Review. Plan for a world change to serve humanity in 2024!
Speaker: Marcia Merry Baker
Time: 9 PM.

Netanyahu's Push for "Voluntary Migration"
Who are the beneficiaries of the destruction underway in Gaza, and Ukraine? It is not the American people, whose tax money is going to war rather than to necessary expenditures in infrastructure, health care, education, etc. And it is not the people of Israel, who are now speaking out against Netanyahu. Join me today for my weekly dialogue with Helga Zepp-LaRouche:

December 22, 2023
To achieve peace on earth, a precondition is that each of us take personal responsibility to generate "good will toward men." As devastating wars rage, and hunger and disease stalk the planet, it should be evident that anger, desire for revenge and control over others must be replaced by acting for the benefit of others, as a precondition for peace, which most of us desire. I wish all our viewers a merry and thoughtful Christmas.

The Actual History of the United Nations
Tonight's discussion will present the actual history of the foundations of the United Nations as the re-emergence of the soul of Franklin Roosevelt. The actual foundations of the United Nations will be a stunning overthrowof everything you have learned about post WWII history. The emergence of the UN as the venue of action for the historic ending of colonial rule and the emergence of the New Development and Security Architecture is a fundamentalchange of the UN from the death of Franklin Roosevelt until today. The crisis of all civilization raises the question of new institutions which reflect the absolutely fundamental changes in outlook.

The End of the Dollar Empire
Provoked by G7 sanctions and theft of reserves in western banks, a growing number of former colonies in the Global South are looking to the use of national currencies, and to develop alternate sources of credit, to fund trade and development. Military-Financial-Industrial Complex think tanks, such as the Atlantic Council, have taken notice, and advocate accelerated financial warfare, as well as kinetic war, to protect their bankrupt Unipolar Order.

Voices of Reason Emerging: Help Us Make Sure They Are Being Heard!
The Unipolar Order is losing all credibility, as it continues to demand unity on behalf of neocons and neoliberals. This model has failed: Not only is opposition growing to its use of sanctions, regime change and war to preserve its power, but it provides no benefit to the vast majority of citizens living in nations of the Global North, whose leaders are desperately clinging to their illusions that they are winning!

Reality Is Breaking Through the Fog
A world defined by permanent war and depression/austerity? Or cooperation among sovereign states for mutual benefit? It shouldn't be a difficult choice. Events in recent days provide some clarity, which is denied to you if you live in the West. The weekly Manhattan Project dialogue can help you break through the fog of the media narrative, and become engaged in the battle to define a new strategic and development architecture for humanity.

How to Stop the Killing in Gaza
While in Israel, Lloyd Austin urged the Netanyahu regime to do more "precise" killing in Gaza. Does this "precision" include IDF sniper fire into a Catholic Church, which killed two women and wounded seven? And as the German government cuts diesel fuel subsidies to farmers, due to a budget crisis, it plans to spend more to support the Ukraine war and fund EU bank bailouts. Farmers drove their tractors into Berlin yesterday, carrying signs which said "Our Christmas Wish, A New Government."

The March away from the Neo-Colonial Unipolar Order
The "Global Majority" yearns for full economic development of sovereign nations, while the "West" wants subservient colonies. That's the divide in the world today.
Description:
Friday questions:
1. Is there opposition in Israel to Netanyahu's extremist scorched earth policy in Gaza?
2. What's going on in Argentina? Is the new government adopting IMF austerity policies? Is it breaking with the BRICS?
3. What is happening in Sudan? (Hint -- don't forget it was a British colony from 1899 to 1956!)
4. What's the deal with Putin's National Press Conference?

Natural Law Is Asserting Itself!
Look at recent developments: Zelensky flops in Washington; near unanimous vote in U.N. General Assembly for a ceasefire in Gaza; implosion of the economies in the EU; the rise of the Global South. All of this was predictable. In fact, the LaRouche movement has been accurate in its assessments for decades of the dynamics underlying these developments, due to the approach developed by Lyndon LaRouche of the relationship of physical economy, science and culture to statecraft.

Lessons from the "Forgotten" War
Why spend more money on a losing cause in Ukraine? Is it about "defending democracy"? Or is it about pouring money into the hands of the war hawks who control the Military-Industrial Complex? Now is the time for the U.S. to acknowledge the mistake of handing policy control to the corporate cartels of the MIC and banking/finance, and instead return to investing into physical goods production and scientific research and development, which was the basis of the success of the post-World War II economy.

WHAT IS THE HIGHER HYPOTHESIS FOR MIDEAST PEACE?
“After this phase of returning our abductees is exhausted, will Israel return to fighting? So my answer is an unequivocal yes,” Israeli, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said yesterday. “There is no way we are not going back to fighting until the end.”
Regarding Southwest Asia, and Palestine and Israel, specifically, China, Russia, and most of the nations of the world have another idea. The “Position Paper of the People’s Republic of China on Resolving the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict” states that
“Implementing a comprehensive ceasefire and ending the fighting.. Protecting civilians effectively…Ensuring humanitarian assistance…. Enhancing diplomatic mediation…. Seeking political settlement” through “a more broad-based, authoritative and effective international peace conference, led and organized by the UN (which)should be held as soon as possible to formulate a concrete timetable and roadmap for the implementation of the two-state solution and facilitate a comprehensive, just and lasting solution to the question of Palestine, are now the best objectives of the UN body as a whole.” as we near the conclusion of the hostage exchange process, and converge upon a potentially even more lethal conflict in Gaza, with immediate worldwide implications, what must we of the LaRouche organization, be prepared to do? Bill Jones, who writes extensively on China and international affairs, will lead tonight’s discussion.

Days of Decision
A series of diplomatic meetings occurred yesterday, with more scheduled for today, of leaders seeking a strategy to find an exit from the vicious cycle of violence, which did not begin on October 7, but has proceeded continuously since the British left Palestine in 1948. An agreement for an extended ceasefire is a crucial first step, which could be enforced by the U.S., which would be supported by most nations. But as Lyndon LaRouche developed in his Oasis Plan, the key to mutual security is shared economic benefit.

Is There an Exit Strategy from the Wars?
Is there a glimmer of hope coming from the meeting between Biden and Xi Jinping? The short answer is yes, but don't rely on Biden, who continues to give full support to Netanyahu's campaign to remove Palestinians from Gaza. Why are MAGA-types supporting this war, when most had figured out the fraud behind the NATO proxy war against Russia? The key is to grasp the "Big Picture", to think strategically. To help you do this, here are links to the weekly dialogue with Helga Zepp-LaRouche, and my article on what we can learn from the Oslo peace process:

Afghanistan — 'Economic Miracle' In-the-Making Nov. 16, 2023
In the tectonic shift of the Global Majority coming together against geopolitics and war, and for economic development, Afghanistan has come to the forefront of the world agenda. In that mountain nation, despite 40 years of occupation and destruction, there are both emergency and long-term measures underway for the good of the people and the Eurasian region. Amazing gains are being made, regardless of the severe anti-development belligerence of sanctions, and the U.S. seizure of Afghanistan central bank assets.
Hear all about it tonight in the Fireside Chat, with EIR Co-Editor Marcia Merry Baker, who just returned from Kabul, after participating--with six other colleagues from the Schiller institute--in an extraordinary conference Nov. 6-8, titled, "Operation Ibn Sina: Toward an 'Economic Miracle' in Afghanistan."
This event, attended by some 600 people, was sponsored by the Ibn Sina Research and Development Center, an international effort whose co-founders and leaders have taken the initiative over the past two years, from Afghan emigre networks, to do everything to advance development in their homeland, where they are working with government officials of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.
In October, 2021, Helga Zepp LaRouche issued a call for an international mobilization, she called "Operation Ibn Sina," to provide emergency health care and humanitarian measures for Afghanistan, while an economic build-up was begun. Ibn Sina, 10th c. physician and philosopher, is a universally esteemed and beloved figure, whose family is from northern Afghanistan, and who signifies hope for the future.
Since 2022, a team of 11 Schiller Institute volunteers has collaborated in every area, from water and energy, to agriculture, industry and culture, to support the Operation Ibn Sina initiative.

"An Ocean of Instability and Horrors"
As Netanyahu's forces storm through Al Shifa hospital, seeking the "beating heart" of Hamas' terror infrastructure, the U.N. Security Council passed a resolution for "humanitarian pauses." Biden reasserted U.S. opposition to a ceasefire, while two Israeli Members of the Knesset wrote in the {Wall Street Journal} of their plan for removing Palestinians from Gaza.
Here is a link to my weekly dialogue with Helga Zepp-LaRouche from November 15, which includes her preliminary evaluation of the Biden-Xi meeting:

Netanyahu Ally Cites Bombing of Dresden as Precedent for Destruction of Gaza
Unless the Biden administration breaks with its current policy of defending a bankrupt, broken global system by unleashing brutal wars, there is little hope for humanity. A Netanyahu ally told a BBC reporter that she has no right to criticize Israel given what the Brits did to Dresden at the end of World War II. There is no justification for the brutal collective punishment Netanyahu is delivering to the children, women and elderly of Gaza. A comprehensive peace plan must begin with a ceasefire, humanitarian aid, and negotiations, under the umbrella of a new strategic and development architecture. This is the only way to provide peace and security for the people of Israel and Palestine.

What the Censors Don't Want You to Know
Did you hear about the downgrading of the U.S. economy? Possibly, but not likely. How about the Saudi-Africa Development conference, or the Afghan reconstruction conference? Most likely not. Media censorship is a significant part of "narrative shaping" designed to dull the mind, to keep solutions which go against the establishment's policies from public awareness. Get your friends into the real world, by introducing them to The LaRouche Organization.

We Were Born for Something Better
Livestream at 2pm EST/11am PST
Send in your questions to questions@laroucheorganization.com
Speakers: Mike Robinson, UK Column; Harley Schlanger, Spokesman, The LaRouche Organization; Prof. Clifford Kiracofe, President, Washington Institute for Peace and Development
When the Berlin Wall fell, November 9, 1989, the spontaneous singing of Friedrich Schiller’s poem, “An die Freude” — “Ode to Joy” was everywhere. Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony setting of the words of Friedrich Schiller echoed in the hearts and minds of, not only the German people, but people all over the world that felt themselves to be part of that moment. Something new, wonderful and beautiful seemed to emerge in the world at that time.
The voice of Friedrich Schiller, the Poet of Freedom, can best resonate, when a great opportunity confronts a people that, weeks or even days earlier, seemed unconcerned with history, and what it takes to change it. Tragedy, such as that now unfolding before us, not only in Palestine, but in the United Nations, in the corridors of power in America and Europe, sometimes calls forth from the dispossessed, the disenfranchised, the insulted and injured, the best that is possible from humanity.
At that time, it is the poet that gives voice to what sits, without words, on the souls of those that the world itself suddenly realizes do not deserve their unchosen fate and were “born for something better.” The children of Gaza, in their undeserved suffering, torture and death, require something better from the world, and from each of us. How must we act, in the next days and hours, to become as large as this moment if history requires us to be, if justice and freedom are not to perish from the Earth?

Can Movements Defeat Madmen
On November 9, 1989, the Berlin Wall fell. Built in 1961, it was internationally recognized as a symbol of mental intransigence, “the tyranny of dogma and ideology.”In January of the same year the wall—and the East German state— collapsed, Erich Honecker, leader of the East German Democratic Republic (GDR) had proclaimed that the 96-mile wall, with its 55,000 land mines and 302 watchtowers, “would stand for another 50 or 100 years.”
It was brought down, not by a treaty, or a war, but by a nation and people who, when the historical opportunity presented itself, “walked through the wall” of the axioms of the state. It is sometimes possible in history for new, right, just and needed ideas to change the course of what otherwise seemed, only weeks earlier, inevitable. Has the historical opportunity now arisen, through the worldwide emergence of the BRICS-Plus nations, and the now-obvious failure of the NATO war against Ukraine, for a revolutionary idea for a new security and economic cooperation and development architecture to take root—including in the present war in Southwest Asia—and wrest control from the trans-Atlantic War Party?
Ray McGovern is a former op Senior Analyst for the U.S. Central intelligence Agency (CIA), a Founding Member of the Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS), and a member of the International Peace Coalition as well as Jewish Voice for Peace. He recently spoke at a Schiller Institute conference on the topic “JFK and Russia, Making a Shift Towards Sanity on the Brink of Annihilation.”
